Pleasantly Surprised

I recently ordered a 686-5 from Texas and finally got to pick it up on Thursday. Not only did I get a great deal on it, but the dealer picked up the shipping cost, and threw in two speedloaders. It also has a Millet adjustable rear sight and has had trigger work done. The trigger feels almost as smooth as a Python and is at least a couple of pounds lighter than any of my other Smiths. I can't wait to take it out!

Very nice. Big Smiths are my all time fave handgun.

Millett sights leave Smith & Wesson's in the dust.

Wolf, before I even had the gun in hand I was looking into restoring the sights to stock, but as soon as I held it that all went out the window. These sights are unbelievable in their adjustment and apparent quality.
